Rather than showing a scene, this print sets the text of the Gettysburg Address before the viewer, under Abraham Lincoln's name. Lincoln delivered the speech on Nov. 19, 1863, at the dedication of a national cemetery on the Gettysburg battlefield, where Union and Confederate forces had fought in July of that year. The address runs only a few hundred words and followed a much longer oration by Edward Everett, yet it became the most quoted statement of the war's purpose. Boston publisher M.T. Sheahan issued this color print around 1909, as the nation approached the war's fiftieth anniversary and interest in Lincoln ran high.
